Guillain-Barré syndrome and dengue

Abstract: The publication on Guillain-Barré syndrome and dengue is very interesting 1. Indeed, Guillain-Barré syndrome can be present as a totally unwanted event in any viral infection. However, the direct causal relationship between Guillain-Barré syndrome and dengue required further systematic corroboration. An interesting concern is that there is no confirmed exclusion of other factors that can lead to Guillain-Barré syndrome in the reported cases, including the present one. Also, SOARES et al. noted that the case of… Show more

“…O início da ADEM geralmente é decorrente de infecções virais (como dengue, herpes simples, influenza A), bacterianas ou imunização (sarampo, caxumba ou rubéola) entre outros [2].
